Black Belt Club
This club is for junior students that have reached 4th Kyu and above. It gives them certain privileges over the other Kohai (lower grades) such as advanced Kata, Bunkai training and Special Seminars. In addition for those student that want to learn to become instructors, it enables them to get onto the Kodokan Instructor's program. As they become more experienced and qualified they will begin to assist in or take classes along side the qualified instructors. There is al lot to learn and with this responsibility which in turn develops our students into highly motivated and confident karate-ka.
